MOD Defence ICT Strategy 2013

The Ministry of Defence have released their updated Defence Information and Communications Technology Strategy. This strategy supersedes the Defence ICT Strategy previously published in 2010. techUK's membership were given the opportunity to comment on the draft of this strategy and techUK submitted a response to it earlier this year which can be found here.

The Strategy responds to the business and operational needs, and the resultant information needs and flows, set out in relevant strategies and plans. It considers the full range of information policies set for MOD by the Chief Information Officer (CIO), through the Head of Strategy, Policy and Practice, and the resultant ICT technical policies he delegates through the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to the Defence Technical Authority, and seeks to shape these where necessary to improve coherence. A relevant briefing was delivered to techUK members by the CIO's office in October 2013, notes and slides from this briefing can be found here.
